Beitar Jerusalem Pursues Colombian Midfielder Alexis Serna Despite Club's Resistance
Beitar Jerusalem remains determined to sign Colombian midfielder Alexis Serna from Independiente Medellín, despite the latter club's insistence on keeping the player. The Israeli Premier League team is looking to strengthen its squad following a recent defeat to Hapoel Tel Aviv.
Serna, 28, is reportedly Beitar's top target for reinforcing the midfield. The club has presented Medellín with a transfer proposal and hopes to bridge the financial gap to secure the player. Beitar officials have expressed a strong desire to acquire Serna, who has a contract with Medellín until the end of 2027.
In the past season, Serna made 25 appearances, scoring 3 goals and providing 2 assists. Beitar had also considered Johan Torres as an option, but he was a lower priority and is reportedly nearing a move to Maccabi Netanya.
